Bismillaah:
Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه said:
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
“Be prompt in doing good deeds [ before you are overtaken] by turbulence which would be like a part of the dark night. During a man would be a Believer in the morning and an unbeliever in the evening or he would be a Believer in the evening and an unbeliever in the morning, selling his faith for worldly things.”
Takhreej:
{ Imam Muslim in his Saheeh #169 }
Shaykh Muhammad Naasir ud Deen Al Albaani رحمه اللّه commented:
This Hadeeth is a warning from the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم to his Ummah about the Fitan (trials), which the minds cannot conceive. Great Trials! “which would be like a part of the dark night”, by which the Muslims will be tried. He would be a Believer in the morning and by evening would become a Kaafir, and vice-versa.
And His صلى الله عليه وسلم saying:
“Hasten to perform deeds”, meaning: good deeds. He صلى الله عليه وسلم is prompting his Ummah (to do good deeds), especially in the times of the later generations which, with the passing of time, are getting closer (to the prophecy). The more the time passes, the more the trials and the more close we get to the Major Signs of the (approaching) Hour ). The Prophet, صلى الله عليه وسلم in this Authentic Hadeeth, is instructing us to hasten to do good deeds before we are overtaken by these trials, i.e. we face them with righteous deeds. So that if these trials come upon us all of a sudden, we can face them armed with our righteous deeds which we had done previously. And that these righteous deeds (by Allaah’s Will) will come in between us and the trials so that we do not fall into these trials which are described as: “which would be like a part of the dark night”.
